Also spells out KIA casualty figures for both sides to date in the Ukraine war. Over 100,000 KIA Ukrainians; 15,000 KIA Russians.

and then:
The presenter has a sense of humor and does a good job mimicking neocons complete with accents...:-)

I must be getting old. How can a presenter, no matter what side they are on, find any humor?

“I must be getting old. How can a presenter, no matter what side they are on, find any humor?”

I can see two possible reasons. One is it’s a coping mechanism, when some people see absolute horror, they cope by making jokes, it’s a way of relieving the horrible stress.

The other applies to hardened combat folks, they are so used to the horrors of warfare it’s just everyday business for them, and for these people finding humor in war is no different than a carpenter finding humor on the job.

One or both cases may apply to the presenter. Many sheltered people would simply not comprehend the above two probabilities.

Shameless Russian propaganda.

Look up the Dark Triad (psychology).

He said,

"it's like visiting Canada, it helps to have low expectations."
LOL

I need that kind of sense of humor.

I am three months from Seventy and that's funny right there!

“15,000 Russian KIA’’.

Bs. Total and complete bulls**t.

That the same figure the Russians claimed to have lost in Afghanistan.

There is no way on Earth you can lose the exact number of people in two wars.
